Minor Update Just Installed
I just performed a very minor update that addressed some minor bugs.
The most significant fix is to the search function. The 3.0 release included a very robust search function. It's fairly fast, it doesn't miss a thing, and unlike Google it orders the search results by date.
Prior to this fix the shortest word you could search for was 4 letters. 1, 2 and 3 letter words were ignored. You can now search for 3 letter words.

A linked ID's glitchlet
I was looking for this Message 27 of mine. It is my most recent message in that topic.
I originally posted it as Adminnemooseus, then edited the ID to Minnemooseus. It is NOT listed in the Minnemooseus index - It is listed in the Adminnemooseus index.
When I went to edit it a second time, it showed up for edit as being an Adminnemooseus message (Adminnemooseus avatar and the "Select Author ID's" were set to Adminnemooseus).

Re: A linked ID's glitchlet
Hi Moose, thanks for finding this. I was already aware of the bug you observed when you made the 2nd edit, but not of the one you found when you made the 1st edit. But I'm pretty sure they're caused by the same problem.
I almost completed the fix this past weekend, it should be ready soon.

Are we going to be getting the individual topic index pages back?
I could check to see if this questions has come up before in this topic, but a topic index would be real useful to do such (assuming that there might have been a good subtitle used for the message).

Re: Are we going to be getting the individual topic index pages back?
Yep, but I don't have a timetable, I'm just working as fast as I can when time is available. The page links and activity meter will also be making comebacks.

Re: A linked ID's glitchlet
I've just released a fix for problems related to editing posts to change the author ID. Please let me know if you find any problems. This one was tricky and is worth testing if you have time, both the changing of the author IDs for messages, and the correct updating of the member thread lists.

Re: Minor Update: Miscellanous Improvements
The thingies (sorry can't think of the word) that have the thread title and last post and the "skip to last unread post" thingy in them have changed in size.

I hunt for the truth

Many Broken Links Fixed
The July upgrade to dBoard 3.0 broke many links in old messages. I'm running a process now that should fix a great many of them.
Please let me know if you run across any remaining broken links. Many of them fit a pattern that can be easily fixed. Once I see an example I can usually fix all that fit the pattern.

Hey Hardworking Percy, hope this is an easy fix
when listing threads I've posted on, ie
EvC Forum: RAZD Topic Index
I get the normal listing for the first 19 or 20 threads and then a jumble with every line centered:

Re: found another glitch
RAZD you must be special. I just did a quick look at all the members currently logged in and you and Percy are the only ones with this issue. He must be treating you "special".

At
I haven't yet checked if this date is also showing up elsewhere.
Adminnemooseus
Added by edit: OK - That date seems to be everywhere. Using Firefox.
Added by edit 2: Originally my subtitle was At "Board Central" all registrations are showing up as 8/11/09. I believe it originally posted as such, but when edited, got truncated as "At " (At with a space after).
